The registrar's office reports
that the winter term at George
Fox college, as of last week,
has a total enrollment of 329
students. This is slightly less
than the fall term of 336, but
some students may yet regis-
ter.
There were 17 dropouts from
first term and 13 new or re-
turning students second term.
Among the new students are
four freshmen: Maurice Macy
from Wheaton, Illinois; Patri-
cia O'Brien from Seattle,
Wash.; Dennis Osborne from
Newport, Ore.; and David Birch
from St. Helens, Oregon.
Robert Jackson from New-
berg is the only new sophomore,
but the class has four returning
students: Judi Belanger from
Newberg; Marjorie Brood from
Medford, Ore.; Mike Cox from
Yorba Linda, Calif.; and Mike
JarvUi from Silverton, Oregon.
Jose Alcantara from Baga-
manoc Catanduanes, Philip-
pines and Donald Brown from
Newberg are the only special
students to enroll this term.
Donald Sasse from Newberg
and Larry Cowin are finishing
their registration.

Future Freshman Day will be held on the George
Fox college campus, Saturday, January 23. High school
seniors from all over the Northwest will come to be the
guests of GFC for a day that has been planned to show
them a little of what life is like'on campus.
Registration will start at 9:00 a.m. in the Student
Union building. At 9:30 a.m. the first of two group
sessions will meet. These
group meetings are designed to
show the prospective students
the academic possibilities of
each of the divisions available.
The heads of the various divi-
sions have planned the group
meeting-s and a majority of the
faculty will participate. The
first session will cover divisions
I, n, and m. The second ses-
sion will cover divisions IV, V,
and VX

Success Anticipated
Earl Craven, director of
admissions, looks forward to a
very successful program. In
recent years there have usually
been from 100 to 150 young
people taking advantage of this
program. He further stated
that despite a very rainy day
last year the program was very
successful and should be even
better this year.
Mr. Craven also expressed
the opinion that in past years
the open house has been one
of the most successful parts of
the program. The rooms make
an informal setting where the
seniors can talk to the college
students and ask questions they
have about the student's side
of college life.
Stansell to Serve
As Ambassador
Ron StanseU, ASGFC Presi-
dent, has been appointed as the
Foreign Youth Ambassador for
the Oregon Yearly Meeting. His
appointment was announced at
the Mid-Winter convention held
during Christmas vacation.
Ron will travel this summer
to the Friends missions in Bo-
livia and Peru, his itinerary
being similar to that of Chuck
Mylander, last summer's am-
bassdor.
The plans are for Ron to
leave soon after graduation and
to return in time for Yearly
Meeting. His major goal will
be to follow up on the work
done by Chuck last year and
to help with some of the prob-
lems of youth organization.
The funds for the trip will
come mainly from pledges
made at the Mid-Winter con-
vention. The remainder will be
supplied through the mission
board of the Yearly Meeting.
Ron will travel with one of
the missionaries in the coun-
tries in order to visit with
youth and speak to church and
youth groups. He hopes to con-
tinue some of the projects be-
gun as a result of the visit
made by Chuck last year and
to increase the communications
between youth.
Ron feels that this will be an
"opportunity for personal ex-
perience in organizing- and
working with youth as well as
aa aid to the churches and the
mission board. It is also an
expression of the concern for
youth felt throughout the
Yearly Meeting."
The trip is under the spon-
sorship of the Youth Ambassa-
dor program which is a pro-
ject of the Yearly Meeting's
Friends Youth.

THE CRESCENT

Let's Solve This!
At the student council retreat last weekend
the members of the council expressed a concern
which strikes near to the heart of all GFC stu-
dents — chapels! Now that is a word which con-
jures up various reactions and attitudes. In fact
there is little else with such an emotional reaction
on campus, unless it is perhaps co-ed dorms.
Perhaps the most encouraging sign was the
action which the council took. They first sent a
letter to the administration recommending that
the chapel committee begin to function to meet
some of the problems faced in programming. And
then the council took the wisest step of all. They
appointed a committee and headed it the "chapel
suggestion committee".
The purpose of the committee, which will be
headed by Fred Gregory, is to determine what
improvements can be made in the chapel program,
this included not only physical improvements in
the setting and better programming, but the very
attitudes of the students themselves. And here
we come to what we believe is the crux of the
problem
There is nothing funny nor encouraging in
rudeness. Nor is the testimony of a student body
enhanced by an impolite, indeed impertinent, aud-
ience. Granted, the speaker or presentation may
not be the most interesting or stimulating, in fact
they are, upon occasion, pretty uninteresting. But
there is NO excuse for the attitude which seems
to have developed about the chapels.
One of the problems is the setting. And one
of the recommendations of student council was
that someone finally ought to fix the speaker sys-
tems. Even a good speaker needs to be heard.
And, lo and behold, they were fixed last week.
Another problem is of the presentations.
They are supposed to be varied, and even the most
devout can weary of preachers. And in this the
committee is supposed to poll the students, other
schools, and come up with some ideas. And this
is where the students can help. Chapel speakers
are donating their time and must come here free.
Student volunteers are being sought to fill in some
of the programs.
We can't have a new chapel overnight. But
we can have a better attitude overnight. It would
be a shame to bring some top speakers before our
rude audience. And until the students show that
they deserve something better, and until they are
willing to put out a little effort towards a better
program, the best presentations possible won't
solve the chapel program.
So now what? The fleece has been thrown
out. The committees report should be in within a
month or so. One of the sections will be. on dis-
cipling students during chapel. There should be
no need to begin some policing of chapels. This
should come from a sincere desire of the students
themselves to be Christian listeners. For it is the
very ones who are the rudest who need to listen
the most.
Are You failing Us ... .
Or Are We failing Youl
It really seems a shame that The Crescent hasn't been able
to stir up more student opinion. It seems ages since we have had
a letter, or even a scathing: criticism. The question arises whether
it is because we are failing in our responsibility or whether the
students just don't care enough.
We would venture to guess it is the latter. The Crescent
wants to be of service to you. We shall try to dig up some scintil-
lating, collegiate concerns which will cause the letters and com-
ments to pour in. But we need the students, and that means you.
We haven't even had enough reported to continue running a
Between Classes column.
It seems a shame that a paper which is progressing in so
many areas is failing in such an important one. This is written
in the nature of an appeal. Surely there is something in this
paper you feel strongly enough' about to comment on, or a situa-
tion on campus, or off. Why not drop us a line or two?
dunlap Aids Rescue Work Via Radio
By Sue Burbank
Christmas vacation afforded
a new and interesting exper-
ience for Mike Dunlap, GFC
freshman. Mike operated a
ham radio station for the Red
Cross during the flood disaster.
His responsibility to provide
emergency communications for
the Red Cross was a time-con-
suming project for him. He
stated that during the whole
week of Christmas he got a
total of twelve hours of sleep.
The Red Cross used radio
communications to help track
the location of personnel and
the jobs they were doing at
each particular time. They set
up evacuation centers where
they fed and cared for disaster
victims.
Set TTp Station
The first day that Mike vol-
unteered he set up a station in
a Portland motel and worked
the better part of the night
from that position. On Tues-
day this mobile ham unit was
transferred to the flood scene
but only remained there for
several hours before being
evacuated.
The station was set up again
briefly at an evacuation center
before it was moved to the
main Red Cross center for the
remainder of the week.
Since this was an emer-
gency situation, Mike was on
duty most of the time and he
remembers sleeping with the
microphone in his hand, ready
to be called if needed.
Relayed Messages
One of Mike's major jobs
was to relay messages to the

police and to receive instruc-
tions from them. The police
were in charge of the actual
evacuation and calls of distress
frequently came to the Red
Cross center.
Besides the radio station
manned by Mike, there were
many others scattered in stra-
tegic locations in the flood
areas. Also hundreds of relay
stations participated in giving
information.
Mike was glad that ham
radio played such an important
Replies to Column
part in this emergency because
he felt it placed such radios in
a more favorable light.
As Mike told of his feelings
about the experience: "Ama-
teur radio is not only a hobby
but a public service. It is only
in emergencies such as the
flood that its true worth can
be seen. I am also glad that I
had the personal experience."
Mike has set up his ham
radio equipment in Port Elig-
ible and is now able to pursue
this hobby here at George Pox.

College).
Chapel will be extended Wed-
nesday to allow a longer per-
formance.
Drama Presentation
Another up-coming event will
be the presentation of Between
Two Thieves by the Drama de-
partment January 28-31. It is
a play in the form of a mock
trial in which modern Jews,
Christians, and even agnostic
are pitted against each other
in drama about whether the
ancient Jews were guilty of the
death of Christ.
It was translated from the
original Italian by an Ameri-
can Jew and presents all sides
of the picture. It is being pre-
sented in the hope that it will
get the audience to open up
their minds to new ideas.
Those included in the cast are
Ron Parrlsh, Clark Adams,
Rosemary Thomas, Gary
Hinkle, Katrina Salo, Phil Rob-
erts, Sheldon Kins haw, Mahlon
Wilson, Lorl Root, Keith Drahn,
Ron Linhart, Steve LeBaron,
Phil Morrill, and Cheryl Grib-

The play will be in the Cen-
tral School auditorium and the
admission will be $1.00 for
adults and 50 cents for stu-
dents.
This play has enjoyed long
runs in NewYork and the capi-
tals of 22 countries in Europe.
Mrs. Medlock Has
New Art Position
Mrs. Armetta Medlock was
introduced to the faculty dur-
ing the recent faculty meeting
as the interim professor of art
at George Pox. She is taking
the responsibility of acting art
professor while Mrs. Lynn Ol-
son is on leave.
Mrs. Medlock received her
BA degree from Greenville col-
lege in Illinois and her Mas-
ter's degree from Adams State
college. She has also done ad-
vance work at the University
of Washington and the Univer-
sity of Michigan.
Besides teaching at other
schools in Colorado she has
taught for seventeen years at
Seattle Pacific college where
she also served as head of the
art department.
According to Professor Dean
McNichols of Seattle Pacific,
formerly dean of George Fox,
Mrs. Medlock has a fine repu-
tation in the city of Seattle for
training are students for the
have read with interest the remarks of students
in the previous issue of the Crescent, and it may
be that out of this interchange of opinions we
can all come up with an improved service from
term to term.
First, to me, the most important considera-
tion in a program for student health is to assure
the well-being, physically and emotionally, of all
the college community. Second, these goals should
be achieved with as little cost to the students as
a group, and thus to the individual student, too.
And third, the student should miss as little class
time as possible.
George Fox has provided the best institu-
tional group policy is is possible for our adminis-
tration to arrange. It is possible that some fam-
ilies, on a private basis, or in connection with
other group policies, may have comparable
arrangements.
An added concern for those of us in student
health is that each student does not get "down"
and therefore miss his class participation. The
emotional reaction from getting behind, and thus
be under pressure to bring up his grades, may
be a more serious situation than the actual illness
itself. Thus our insistance that students get up,
come to the dispensary ; and in most instances the
very act of getting up, dressing, and the walk
itself, produces a reaction of bodily and mental
vigor. And, as a part of this, going to meals pro-
duces the same good results. There is less danger
of contagion in the initial trip to the dispensary
than if a student stays in his room, and other stu-
dents are not isolated immediately.
Our plans provide for longer hours as the col-
lege grows. Upper division students will testify
to the fact that the nurse is available in the dis-
pensary this year for longer periods than pre-
viously. Our long-range plans are to build a sep-
arate health center, but that we shall not have
all the duplicating facilities of the Newberg Com-
munity Hospital. We are ideally situated in a
small town and nearby to the adequate public hos-
pital.
As a personal note, I hope that all students
will realize my desire to serve all of you to the
best of my ability. In case of emergency, I am
available at any hour. Our program is carried
out in cooperation with the Dean of Students, the
physical education people, and the head residents.

THE CRESCENT

By Meredith Youngren
The words, "New Year" almost always call
to one's attention a fresh beginning or outlook
on life. As one meditates on the experiences,
joys, sorrows, achievements, and blessings of the
year behind him he also thinks about and makes
plans for the new experiences which the new
year before him will bring.
Most people will recall many personal fail-
ures of the past year, and will anticipate elim-
inating as many of these as possible for the com-
ing year. One promises and resolves to himself
how he can improve his life and he may even
set firm resolutions as to how he will live in the
forthcoming year.
Students at George Fox quite readily admit
that they do not usually make resolutions, be-
cause they don't ever keep them. Comments on
the subject "Do you make New Year's Resolu-
tions, and if you do, do you keep them, or if you
do not make them, why don't you?" are as fol-
lows:
JOHN BAKER states, "I made no New
Year's Resolutions this year. I instead make
resolutions as I come to a time when a definite
choice must be made. However, I believe that
this tradition could be of great value to help to
improve one's habits of life, if one took advant-
age of it by self-evaluation and self-griticism."
JUDY ROBERTS says, "I used to make New
Year's Resolutions and stick to them for a week
or so, and forget them after that. Now, at the
beginning of a new year, I re-evaluate my Christ-
ian walk and resolve to live in closer communion
with Christ. I think the New Year is a good op-
portunity to take a good look at ourselves and
resolve to do better, but when improvements
need to be made there's no need to wait until
next New Year's!"
MISS ALICE DIXON — New Year's Reso-
lutions? Not really. I usually look back over
the past year and note the failures and weak
places — then pray for help and guidance to
make the coming year better, but I don't often
list definite resolutions. It's too easy to start off
big and fail to carry through.
IX)RNA HENDRIE thinks that "New Year's
Resolutions are not realistic enough for me to
keep them. I make too many. Instead of keep-
ing just one, I don't keep any of them. So I just
don't waste my time making them anymore."
ELLEN RASMUSSEN comments, "I feel our
lives need to be previewed, not only at the be-
ginning of each year, but at the beginning of
each new day. New Year's Resolutions are new
goals and ideas we would like to attain. If we
make them hand in hand' with God's will for our
lives, they are worthwhile, but it is when we
alone resolve to do better that we get riscouraged
and forget that which we desire to improve."
RON S TANS ELL — "I have occasionally
made New Year's Resolutions, usually probably
too generalized to be very helpful. Nevertheless,
I think they can be good. I find myself not al-
ways measuring up to my resolve step by step,
but rather pointing in the intended direction. If
a new resolve for self -improvement through God's
help can accomplish even this much, then it has
been worthwhile."
EM1KO GOHARA — "I don't make resolu-
tions necessarily at the beginning of a new
year. My resolutions are made as I need them
throughout the year."
SHERYL CLOUD — "I think New Year's
Resolutions boost your ego if you actually keep
them, and they are stupid if you break them
right away."
BEA SANDOZ — "I don't make them be-
cause I know I won't stick to them. I've tried
them before but they never work."
LEROV FOSTER — "They are nothing but
a formality. As a whole, I don't think people are
earnest in making resolutions. I think they are
satarized more than anything else."
- CLARK ADAMS. "I make one resolution
each year, the same resolution: I resolve never
to make New Year's Resolutions. I always keep
this resolution. The reason I make said resolution
is that I find it is the only kind or resolution that
I can keep. P.S. Quoth he who had more words
to his tongue than the rest."
JOHN LINHART — "No, I don't make them.
Why say something when you don't mean it?"
ANDREW MUUNE — from Kenya— "I do not
usually make New Year's Resolutions, this be-
ing a foreign custom to me. However, I should
state that I have a goal in my life. This goal is
to learn as much and as fast as I can and go
back to my country to serve my people."

A committee was appointed by
the council to investigate prob-

THE CRESCENT
Monday, January 18, 1965
After the recent announcement of the discon-
tinuation of baseball for the spring of '65, a few
words of explanation seem necessary to prevent
misunderstanding between students and adminis-
tration. After discussing the matter with both
Athletic Director Earl Craven and Dean of Ad-
ministration Frank Cole, I hope to give a report
of sorts on what has been accomplished thus far.
The lack of a field was given as the major rea-
son for this cancellation. The administration
seems to have been overconfident of the contrac-
tor's promise to do the work since midsummer.
The feeling now is that even if the field is finished
in time it will be too muddy for use this season.
At the time of this writing there is some hope
that the work can be done before time for baseball
and if possible, for it to be used. This is not being
written to get anyone's hopes too high but rather
to show that an effort is being made to correct
the situation. Fellows who are interested in play-
ing baseball should contact the administration,
because the greater the desire, the better the
chances of having a team.
It is good to know that the administration is
taking action since a field and full-time coach was
promised last year. Every possibility should be
checked to make baseball available this year since
it was and still is the responsibility of the admin-
istration to provide this facility. If every effort
is made and it is still impossible to compete this
year, the administration should make certain that
a situation of this nature does not arise again.

It seems fitting to add a word about our
champion volleyball team. They won the league
last week by defeating the girls of Linfield col-
lege. There is still a chance for the students to
see the girls in action. Their final home game will
be against OCE next Tuesday in Hester gym-
nasium. Come out and show these girls some true
championship spirit.

Hoopsfers Trounce
NCC Cavaliers
Using a second half outburst,
the GFC Quakers buried the
visiting Northwest Christian
Crusaders 70-54, January 9.
The host Quakers jumped to a
4-0 lead in the opening min-
utes of the game but were soon
slowed and passed by the Cru-
saders.
NCC continued to dominate
the game and built up a 9 point
lead with 5 minutes remaining
in the first half. However, the
Quakers suddenly came to life
and in the closing minutes of
the half cut the lead to 28-27.
In the second stanza the
Quakers took up where they
left off and soon were pulling
away from the Crusaders. Sev-
eral times NCC threatened to
get back in the game but were
. checked by a flury of baskets
by Coach Haskell's crew. As
time ran out the Crusaders
fought desperately, but the
Quakers won going away with
a final score of 70-54.
The Quaker victory evened
their league record at 2-2 and
avenged an earlier two-point
loss at the hands of NCC.
The scoring story was one
of balance on the part of the
GPC'ers. Leading the Quakers
was Jess Wilson with 17. Close
behind were Dale Twenge with
16 and Jim McNelly with 12.
The other two GFC starters
Ron Heide and Gary Blackmar
contributed 10 and 8 respec-
tively. Scoring honors for the
game went to Lynn Griffen of
NCC with 26. Dwain Spooner
had 11 for the losers.
In the preliminary game, the
JV's downed the Central Naz-
arene church of Vancouver
66-99 to make a clean sweep
for the night.

GF Girls Take League,
End Season Undefeated
Coach Marge Weesner predicted at the beginning of
volleyball season that "with more practice and more
game experience we should have a good volleyball team."
The prediction turned out to be an accurate one. Last
week the girls defeated Linfield to become champions
of the league.
With only one game
straight win season. I-Jist Tues-
day they defeated Linfield by
15-5 and 15-6 scores.
Tomorrow night the girls
will play OCE at 7:00 in Hes-
ter gymnasium. GFC has al-
ready won a non-league game
from this team.
The first string team consists
